Diapharm welcomes new EMA location in Amsterdam

The European pharmaceutical service provider Diapharm (www.diapharm.com) welcomes the EU’s decision to relocate the European Medicines Agency (EMA) to Amsterdam. “The Dutch people have always been open to innovation, and we hope that this spirit will also help guide the EMA’s future decisions,” says Ralf Sibbing, General Manager of Diapharm. Diapharm opened an office in Breda (Netherlands) in March 2017 and hence is optimally equipped to handle the new development. Home to the Benelux offices of companies such as Amgen, Janssen-Cilag, Fagron, Vifor and UCB, Breda is currently on its way to becoming a successful pharmaceutical hub for the region.

In recent years, Diapharm has helped over 1,000 medicinal products gain marketing authorisation in Germany and throughout Europe. The Dutch Medicines Evaluation Board (MEB) has always placed an emphasis on the safety and efficacy of medicinal products while demonstrating its openness to innovation, says Dr Bert Verhage, Manager of the Diapharm BV subsidiary in Breda.

Diapharm General Manager Ralf Sibbing also welcomed the EMA’s announcement that it would immediately start planning the relocation process: “I hope that many of the agency’s highly qualified staff will follow the EMA from London to Amsterdam. A smooth relocation will be essential to a consistently high safety and quality of the marketing authorisation and monitoring processes in Europe.”
